One of the childrens' friends came over for the day and a sleepover. We went out to look at a house this morning (nothing doing) then after lunch took them to the inflatable playground. It's called "Leaps and Bounds" and has a frog theme. I think that's pretty clever. I love looking at branding and business names since I taught media. It's interesting to see how some people really think about the name and others obviously just choose the first thing that pops into their head. I am fascinated here by the way business owners often blend two names as their store name.
Anyway an hour in there was enough to wear them out. It is just outside and it gets very hot in there so they came out sweaty and dirty. Naomi did pretty good with the help of the older ones. Another ex-pat family came to play there and the mother had very sensibly brought "Off" (mosquito repellant. Another clever name) and I wished I had. My legs were seriously eaten by the time we left.
Rose was so tired after dinner that she needed to go to bed so she went pretty early and by the time the others went to bed she was asleep so there was no silliness and everyone went off to sleep quickly. Can't see it ever happening again but I was very happy.
